New 2019 Recruiting

Shea Rush would go back to being a walk-on

From txhawk on the phog
"According to Williamson’s HS coach, who I worked with directly for 6 years, Sam (and more so his mother) did not get a good vibe on their official visit. The mom felt like KU wasn’t making him a high enough priority at the time. Louisville quickly told Sam what he wanted to hear, and the deal was done. "
Lines up with stuff I was seeing at the time (albeit from more suspicious posters) and wooooof.

I heard Self pushed hard for a commitment and drove Sam’s mom bananas. Not good in hindsight. Doesn’t really solve our problem at the 2 (though there’s a reasonable argument that sophomore Ochai > freshman Williamson) but definitely would make Wilson a non-factor. Oh well.

@FarmerJayhawk I think he’d be nice to have but yeah I think the main concern right now is a capable secondary ball handler that can shoot. Does anyone even possibly fill that role but Kyree Walker? We need Walker badly.
I’d be ecstatic with Walker, taking a flier on that Bilau kid (seems to me like he is trying to recruit KU more than the other way around perhaps) and having an open scholarship.

He basically said he’s going to Oregon to play with his best friend Pritchard.

I did no more research than reading a tweet lol

@Kcmatt7 Sure, I figured as much which is why I wanted to mention it.

I’m worried about Michigan like @jayballer73 now

@BShark what about walker? This is getting sooo old! Schedule out and still deciding

He will play AAU so we won’t hear anything until July. KU has a great shot if he reclasses. If he stays in 20 I think KU goes elsewhere.
-
@BShark brother!
-
Walker is reclassifying, it’s a matter of when he can get the work done. He could very well be a mid-year guy.
Edit: mid, not kid

Really hope it doesn’t go on that long.
-
@FarmerJayhawk - what is a “kid-year” guy?
-
He meant mid-year like Silvio
-
@Gorilla72 I’m so glad you asked that!
-
Ha! My bad. @BShark got it
-
@BShark , @FarmerJayhawk - thanks!

Cory Evans saying he feels Kyree will stay in the class of 2020
-
Carolina just blowin Jalen’s twitter ALL UP

I like Corey, I disagree though. KU wants him to pretty badly, and Hillcrest can make it happen if Walker works at it. Like I said awhile ago, don’t count out a mid year reclass. I’m not sure how interested KU would be in that situation unless they miss on Wilson and have a couple scholarships laying around.
-
Corey still thinks KU is landing Stanley, Precious and Hurt.
-
Not a big fan of the mid-year reclass. If you want to do it go all in and do it, don’t half-ass it. Kind of a metaphor on life, really.
-
Bilau has scheduled a visit to KU.
-
Whoaa - -was just doing my daily surfing and came across 247 sports - - See been activity with Kyree. - - The CB had been Arkansas at - 33% - Arizona - - 33% -& - -KU - -@ 33%
Now the CB shows KU at - -50 % - -Arkansas at - -25 % – &- -Arizona at - -25 % - -like the looks of that - -NOW we just got to get him to reclassify. - -It was Chris Fisher that put his pick in for KU. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Don’t have a date yet.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Oh? I don’t and will never pay Shay so I couldn’t actually read his article. Made it seem like a date was set though.

Idk what Shay said but I do know a date hasn’t been set yet. Also KU likes this kid a lot as a project.

Gotta wonder who is paying to keep the lights on over there heh.
I like him a lot too the more I see. I think you have him essentially take this year off while developing and he could very well be in the top 3 of the post rotation next year. He’s athletic and can shoot it a little bit, decent passer.
-
@BShark I like what I saw of him. - like you said seems athletic , can protect the rim some - seems to have some range although I wouldn’t want to have to count on him in the home stretch of a tight game from range lol - -would be nice to have a 3-4 yr player like himself . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@FarmerJayhawk you’re right, Shay is a hack. My bad.
-
Sooo Wilson had a good time in Chapel Hill (it’s hard not to tbh) but the hot rumor is it’s all KU

NO - -not a good time - -an AMAZING time lol
-
Hyland ended up at VCU. Have a feeling he’ll be good in a few years. Big pick up for them
-
-
-
Have we heard this before?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I banged my head on the table until I forgot about last time… so I’m ready to be disappointed again.
-
So when is he popping for Duke Lol
-
Early next week for Wilson. I’d be really surprised if it wasn’t Kansas.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Twitter hype got me thinking it would be today or this weekend sometime. I guess I can go to the grocery store now then.
-
Read this from a poster of the Phog. - -Pretty spot on I think I could see/go with this. What you think?
If the Scenario played out and Wilson & Moss both ended up here:
Center : - - -Azubuike - - McCormack PF : - - - - - -DeSousa- - Lightfoot SF : - - - - - - Wilson - - -Garrett - - Enaruna SG : - - - - - - Ochai - - - --Moss - - Braun PG - - - - - - - -Dotson- - - McBride
Looks like that would be a pretty dam salty group , Does many of you think McBride gonna get a lot of Quality minutes this year? - - could happen. - -If this is how things turned out probably see Braun RS – yes? – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Wednesday at 2 for Wilson
-
Boom

And there we go , Well looks like I was wrong - well hopefully - -so let me have it throw rocks bombs anything I’ll gladly take it if it turns out like hopefully it does. - I was dead set he was going back to Michigan
Just doesn’t seem to fit with this time frame - -unless Juwan gets that in home over the weekend think they are done and out. - -Do Schools visit recruits in home over the weekends? - I’ll take all the bunk you want to hand me - -be really sweet if we land him. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 Well, the date is set and we didn’t hear anything about a visit with Howard. You wouldn’t think they would set a date and then take visits. That’s said…with this recruiting cycle…I assume NOTHING good for KU ya know?
-
Howard also can’t recruit yet since he hasn’t passed the NCAA exam
